Himachal Pradesh University could not get a permanent Vice-Chancellor despite the passage of more than a year. Although Himachal Pradesh University is an autonomous institution, but the government directly interferes here. Whenever there is a change of power, then the state government appoints officers according to its wish. Four days ago, Prof. in Himachal Pradesh University. Balakrishna Sivaram has been appointed Dean of Studies.

The offer to resign from the post of Acting Vice-Chancellor of Himachal Pradesh University Professor SP Bansal is also being considered as the politics of pressure. Because after the Bharatiya Janata Party’s ouster from power in Himachal Pradesh, the leaders sitting at the top of the Congress government have to make appointments as per their wish. In such a situation, the officers sitting on big posts themselves are offering to leave their posts.
